Overview
Which wagon group fits your cargo?
Every cargo needs the right wagon group. Four wagon groups with clearly defined wagon types and versions help you make the right choice right away.
Tank wagons
Tank cars transport liquids and gases, including chemicals, fuels, and food products, in pressure-resistant containers. Our fleet offers wagons, ranging from standard wagons for mineral oils to specialized wagons for chemical gases.

Modular superstructures
Separating the body and underframe makes wagons multifunctional rather than purpose-built: flexibly adapted to your cargo. This increases the utilization of wagons and freight trains: sustainable, cost-efficient, and more productive.
